DESCRIPTION

Sunspel is a British luxury fashion brand, creating simple, everyday clothing for men and women. Thomas A Hill founded Sunspel in 1860. His revolutionary idea to make simple, everyday clothing from beautiful fabrics soon established Sunspel as a pioneer in British craftsmanship. Sunspel continues this tradition today. Sunspel is best known for producing some of the world' earliest t-shirts and for creating the Riviera polo shirts and t-shirts for Daniel Craig in his role as James Bond. Sunspel also introduced the boxer short to the UK in 1947 - the same shorts that then appeared in the iconic 1985 Levi's 'launderette' advert feature Nick Kamen. Sunspel’s values are integral to the success of the brand - retaining old and traditional techniques but using them creatively and innovatively, combining craft and tradition with technology and modernity.
